The National Harvest Labour Information
Service Australia Provides A Service For Jobseekers Looking For Harvest
Work Throughout Australia
If you wanting to travel around Australia,
and need money to do so then you can contact the National Harvest
Labour Information Service (NHLIS). This service can help you find harvest
work all round, and best of all the service is free.
The Department of Employment and Workplace Relations established the
service to not only find harvest workers for growers in need but for
the large number of itinerant workers, eligible job seekers, backpackers
and the grey army (a term given to retirees, holidaying around Australia)
who would like to work and travel around the various harvest trails of
Australia.
The NHLIS uses three key links to support the Harvest Trail;
For job seekers the National Telephone Service which has a freecall number
1800 062 332. This service runs from 8am to 8pm (est) weekdays throughout
the year. Call centre operators take calls relating to harvest labour
and connect callers to appropriate harvest labour offices. Finding work
is as easy as calling this number.
The Harvest Trail Website, www.jobsearch.gov.au/harvesttrail is part
of the Commonwealth Governments job search website and has been significantly
expanded and improved, providing comprehensive information about harvest
opportunities in all states of Australia. The website enables job seekers
to look to certain states or towns for harvest work opportunities and
important information on the areas they are considering.
The National Harvest Guide, which is fast becoming the bible for anyone
looking for information on harvest work in Australia. The Harvest Guide
provides comprehensive information about harvest work opportunities and
locations, working conditions, transport options and accommodation arrangements.
This harvest guide is available free of charge, and is distributed nationally.
It is also available on the Harvest Trail website. The guides can be
picked up at many Visitor Information Centres, harvest labour offices,
backpacker hostels and caravan parks or otherwise by calling the national
telephone service on 1800 062 332. Included with the harvest guide is
a business card which fits neatly in a wallet and gives job seekers instantly
the 1800 062 332 phone number to call or the website address for the
Harvest Trail. The business card is a great resource in your wallet,
when looking to move to a new area for harvest work.
The NHLIS is an excellent resource for anyone looking to travel around
Australia by working in the harvest labour industry. There are a number
of Harvest trails which can be followed, which can result in employment
all year round.
For further information regarding the service please call 1800 062 332.
